Description
abstractSynopsis:
Adapted from the actors’ life experiences in Hsin Chuang, this play is comprised with scenes of daily lives and punctuated with each actor’s reminiscences in monologues. The play begins with the entrance of a middle-age couple narrating how Hsin Chuang first appears in the earliest historical record. Next, a male character drives on stage, describing how the traffic chaos here always lead to conflicts and quarrels among the residents. As he describes, other actors simulate the situations in his description. The latter half of the play, titled The Story of Chiwei, presents the daily routine in a nursing home and steak house from the male protagonist’s perspective. It also probes into different manners of communication in different stages of lives (college, army, work place, marriage). At the end of the play, the middle-age couple come on stage again to describe the transformation and current situation in Hsin Chuang, while other actors enter the stage in sequence with lotus leaves, donning the stage as a silent, big lotus pond.
